Got an Spi tank a while ago in exchange for some help/work.
Fitted an mpi pump to it, and never realised this until today when i came to put my fuel filler cap on it and it wouldn't go on....

I've no idea. Annoying having the anti syphon there anyway, you can't completely empty the tank quickly with a bitta hose, and I only had to drain a customers tank the other day to fit a new sender, would've been a ballache had i have had to drain it out under the car.
Upon saying that though, I could always use the in tank pump to drain it enough to change a sender.

Slightly off topic, but I found a bic pen cured in an f1 chassis mould once. Still worked aswell!!

This is FORD country, on a quiet day you can hear Vauxhalls rusting.
